I was chatting with a buddy of mine a while back, and after a few bowls we got onto the topic of aliens (because obviously).
We started talking about the Greys and why they look like they do, we went about the "evolution away from different races, the concept of more dependency on tech, blah blah blah" but then I had a thought.
what if, what we think of as the classic "grey" look, the big black eyes, the grey hairless, genderless, featureless bodies (and sometimes faces. very little to no nose or mouth), what if those are just space/exoplanetary exploration/hazmat suits?
Imagine what our astronauts would look like to an alien civilization that had 0 idea there was anyone else out there. We would look like giant puffy genderless white beings with a single giant black eye that takes up almost the entirety of our head. We'd look fucking terrifying. same thing with a Hazmat suit or a doctor in full operation gear (mask, glasses, bandana/hair cap).
Just a thought. Maybe they don't look like what we think they look like, and what we see is really just an exosuit.
